New goat barn
 
1 Attachment(s)
I finally acted on something I've wanted to do for years, I have a goat barn.

I leased a 2,000ft garage (actually it was an office originally) to store my girls, no more rented appartment building parking spots!

It doesn't cost that much more and since my home garage is just big enough to store two cars but no room to any work so now I can do much of the mechanical work, saving a few thousand a year. Should come our cost neutral if I'm not too lazy!

Once again upside down iPhone photo!

Nice work north! Love that antique gold 69 :D

I like that!

If I had something like that with a small 1 bedroom apartment above it, I'd just live there.

Picky picky. Get me a couch to sleep on, a hot plate and fridge and I am good right with the cars!

I have a fridge and microwave at my shop. No bed or sofa, no loafing allowed! lol.

north, congrats on the new digs, your going to love it. Much better security I would think also.

The gold GTO belongs to my friend. The building is owned by another friend and he is a security nut, cameras everywhere and the doors are a bunker like.

No sofa or fridge yet but there is a washroom, good heating, very dry and it warms up real quick when we get there to work or bench race.

Ha! So that was the logic you you used to convince the better half? You're a smart man, maybe I'll try that with my wife! :)

Love your fleet.

Mark Simiele 11-07-2013 10:13 PM

I love it!! I know GTO's are sexy, but why not spread your car love onto other cars too?

Here is my stable:

Darth Menace 11-08-2013 07:50 PM

Believe me, it wasn't my choice...kind of happened by circumstance.

north 11-08-2013 09:32 PM

I'll always remember my first sighting of a viper...

I was visiting my uncle in LA and I was sitting in a rental car waiting at a light to turn on wilshire. I was right in front of the Beverly Hilton and out of the parking lot, I followed it down Santa Monica blvd but when he hit the PCH he nailed it and I lost him.

What made it so neat was that this happened several months the car came out. It had manufacturer plates. Maybe it was magazine guys testing it.

Coming soon after the era of 100 horse muscle cars it was quite something!
